The Renewal Process
The renewal process is a standard evaluation that occurs during the final year of a charter school's contract to determine if the school will receive another contract for future operations. The assessment takes into account a school's School Performance Renewal Index (SPRI) and its growth relative to open admission schools within the city.
For most schools, the SPRI is calculated as the average of their last two School Performance Scores (SPS scores). In the case of schools in their first contract, the SPRI is determined by the better of either their most recent SPS score or the average of their two most recent SPS scores. Additionally, financial stability and organizational performance play pivotal roles in the renewal process.
